Keep the name simple. files.battlefront.com , battlefrontfiles.com , battlefront.com/files
I think it is about time you did this
.You should set a limit per user based on bandwidth, not number of files you can download. Sometimes a mod is not that good and you want to try another that is the same type of mod to see if you enjoy that one.

I'll be playing this one.
I am sure you will as I find PTO X amount of times more interesting than ETO and I have to say I thought for sure ETO would always be more fun.
-
I am not sure how to answer that because my NDA so I will leave that up to Hubert.
-
There is already an import export feature in the SC editor. Those who have used it can elaborate on it or Hubert.

Speaking of your A3R mod. If you want a simpler experience with SC2 series this mod is for you.
I say this with the best compliment to pzgndr but A3R makes me feel very much so like in a SC game. I love that mod.
Now that you have the game (both of you) go to www.cmmods.com and get that mod. I am sure you will find it is a great transition to SC2 series.

So any status update for this great title? Thanks
I just started beta testing this title Thursday and I was blown away at how polished it is in design (most visually appealing SC game yet), technical stuff, code wise and the few change that were made are all for the best... the works!

Also by that time one little Island was taking on the whole world.Can anyone say utter futility.Goes to show how crazy people can get.
We say that but look at today, Hezbollah kicked out Israel of Lebanon and USA is being pushed out of Iraq by resistance forces. Mind you both are well supplied and organized by Iran.
Japan was going for the american souls at home who would get sick of dying soldiers and they could then motion for peace on even terms... so they hope. But then ... KABOOM!!!

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who has been inspired by Clausewitz!
My wargaming improved immensely after reading On War. I still think it's unsurpassed as a guide on how to beat your opponent, although there are a few contenders for that title.
Sun Tzu is still the master IMO. The difficulty is translating what he said into todays modern battlefield. His statements sound more philosophical than strategic or tactical but that is what makes them stand the test of time. I have to admit I find it difficult applying his words into today's world.

The causes of ALL war is plain and simple... GREED. Simply used in disguise in other ways (religion, nationalism, etc...).
A friend of mine says if Religions were banned you would have almost no wars... I do not agree, the greedy bastards would just find another cause to use to attain their objectives.
My theory is simple, eliminate that one single emotion of GREED in humans and you have a perfect world.

WORLD WAR ! ... Damn it where is WW1 !
Roman empire one would be great, at the Period when the Huns were primed to invade.
-
No WW1 found when I looked just today.
-
Edwin was steaming along pretty well on a WW1 mod which I would like to play/test, I have a limited amount of time, nowhere near when I was in full beta mode for SC2/WaW but still I have been itching for a WW1 mod since the days of SC.
Too bad I simply do not have the time to do one myself but I would be happy to help out.
-
I look forward to giving this a shot.
FYI, the best settings for what I consider realistic diplomacy for FWeiss scenarios was this one: (From my WaW mod)
All activation #1 script that affect one minor's join % because another minor was DoW by a Major have been doubled in the possibility of getting a hit and their movement %.
Ex: If Sweden is attacked by Axis in the standard scenario there is a 75% chance that Sweden will move towards Allies by 25-35%.
In my mod the chance of this occurring is 90% and the movement is 50-70%.
You will notice that doubling 75% would be 150%. I put a cap of 90% for possible trigger and 80-90% for possible movement.
Portugal going Allies after Spain is attacked: Default scenario: 100% trigger and 55-65%.
My mod 100% @ 80-90% movement
-
Edwin was making one and I think he was pretty far along.
-
Was not Edwin working on one?
Anyone else?
-
Example: Romania is Axis, Germany is Parent, Germany surrenders but Romania remains active on its own.
That is what happens to all minors, they just go at it all alone.
-
Good idea on the Swiss... defeating them and HOLDING it would have been a much bigger challenge than what you see in game. That country is probably the best naturally defended country in all of Europe.
As for CVs, I always thought they should get higher naval attack power. As for two strikes, I say no because they did not have a HUGE fighter wing compared to a land squadron so they surely do not have the same firepower certainly not better.
-
I use the F3 function which ticks off animation for the AIs turn, really speeds things up. But then again I never watch the AI turn just to add some difficulty to my games.
But use of duo and quad cores would surely make things speed up, I think.
-
I tried the demo of various games, Matrix and others and I just do not enjoy them the way I do Huberts series.
World in Flames looks amazing, but I really have no interest myself as it will obviously not be a beer and pretzel type wargame and I have no interest for wargames that do not fall into this category. I am simply not a fan of micro managing.
-
Advanced Tactics probably has a team of 5-10 people working on it... SC series is ONE man.
I do not like ANY games from Matrix, actually I have not enjoyed any other wargame outside of the SC series. So maybe SC is not for you but it is for some.
-
ble I don't wish to play them. They'd simply not be smart enough for my needs
But wargame makers need to do there part in designing wargames MEANT to be played online against people. I can do many things, alas software design isn't one of them. I've a better chance of designing real world military ordnance.
If memory serves me right less than 10% of people who purchase SC and SC2 series actually play vs. human opponents.
IMHO Hubert does a a bang up job of making the game playable both ways.
-
We know when you call it quits... we burned down the white house twice and we'll stick with that old victory.
We could not even get past the border guards now =)

The turns are weeks and months, no weather was not predictable to that extent back then.
In ALL the games I have played luck has never been a deciding factor, the only time it will be is if someone tries stuff during bad weather and there is plenty of good summer weather to move forward and plenty of good clear winter weather to move as well.
-
Weather is EASILY managed in SC2 and a veteran player like yourself should have no issues with weather.
Quite simple, summer is offense, winter is regroup, fall and spring are the ones you need to have a few preparations in case you get good weather then you might be able to make a few attacks here and there.

ETA for PT?

Haha, when I read the release would be fall 2008 the first date that popped in my mind was the attack on PH. You do not need to be an insider to have that assumption.
